Good. If Cumming plays round 1 with Zilliams in the team, then he's a lock

He won’t make the cut with Williams back. Cumming is a trap.

Disagree. Plodders like Reid, Lloyd, Kennedy, Corr, Buntine won't win them a GF, they need talent. Tomlinson gone, there's a spot up for grabs regardless of the fringe players. Cumming will be a SC premo once Shaw retires, I reckon this year he'll cement his spot and go average ~80

You wont be long
Tip of the day: Think about Newman for a prolonged experience.

Go on you sweet talking kentlemen.

I have grave concerns with Roberton. Hasn't scored well this preseason, being pretty rusty and so far struggling to pick up the pace of the game since being out.

The other issue I see is we as a team relied on him significantly over previous years being the rabble we were. I think we are a more balanced side in terms of SuperCoach out, and even in our defence can rely on Carlisle and Howard to be intercepting ball, not just Robbo.

I am struggling to see the value in starting him when I don't potentially see him as a keeper, and there are plenty of options popping up from an expensive rookie perspective in defence that I believe will score similar and make similar coin.

If I was to pick him, I think it would be on the proviso that I hold him over the bye rounds to help scores, but even then I am getting cold feet as to whether it's worth it.

Value for money or better off with an expensive def rookie?

I've had him a handful of teams but don't like his price or his ceiling.
Just don't see him as a keeper or a useful stepping stone.

You push the little green plus sign in the defenders section, then scroll down to Docherty and select him.

Remember last year when Ridley was Essendon's best player in the pre-season? I remember.

What am I missing with noble? What's he going to do differently to get his AVG above 50?

well
he is trying to hit targets.
hes just not really good at it yet.
plenty of kicks
its just the next bloke doesnt get one.
JS is the only reason i have him

Playing bulk minutes at half back, rather than limited minutes off the pine. Got an AFL preseason into him. His role off half back should be good for 65-75 points, which I’ll take at his price. A good amount of cash generation.

Everyone locking in Roberton? Or more value in zerk thatcher noble ash and starce?

Scoring wise, possibly Zerk or Noble. Ash & Starc probably don't have the JS to be of better on-field value.
